The BI Continuum is a framework used by ChristianSteven Software to describe audiences and their respective needs that a CIO must address as part of an enterprise BI strategy & BI road map. It’s a spectrum of distribution and format possibilities ranging from “push” (from central sources) at one end to “pull” (by end-users) at the opposite end.

From scheduled BI report delivery on the "IT Push" end to browser-based and mobile-enabled Dashboards on the "User Pull" end, the magic sauce is in our proprietary business process automation infrastructure that leverages business rules, workflows and instant notification capabilities built right into our Business Intelligence solutions.

IT Push: Automated BI Reports

The right reports to the right people, in the right format, at the right time.

User Pull: On-Demand BI

Real-Time Reports, Dashboards and KPIs on-demand on your device, when you want it, how you want it.

IntelliFront BI, our full Business Intelligence Suite includes a self-service reporting portal. It is designed to supplement and strengthen Microsoft SQL Server (SSRS) reports, SAP Crystal Reports & Power BI, hiding complexity while providing unmatched ease-of-use on any computing device. And, of course, its built-in KPI dashboard and KPI deployment platform will give you access to mission-critical real-time browser-based business intelligence dashboards.

Judge us by the company we keep!

I must say this is an easy one for me, as I have always been impressed by all of the team at ChristianSteven Software and hold them in high esteem.

We have partnered with ChristianSteven Software for more than a decade now, and have found their software solution of CRD to be fundamental to our business, and critically superb value for money.

ChristianSteven Software have always conducted themselves as professional and experts within their industry, any issues we have encountered have been dealt with swiftly and efficiently – I truly cannot think of any complaints or moans I have had with them.

During the mid-1990s Christian entered the software and business arena, writing and selling successful shareware applications, cutting his teeth in web marketing and Internet-based businesses.

Christian conceived ChristianSteven Software as a solutions provider to create and market easy-to-use and intuitive applications specifically for information management and database reporting.

Christian is a lifetime member of the Cambridge Who’s Who, a sought-after writer on the subject of business intelligence, music aficionado, history buff, and news junkie. A proud father of three, Christian spends most of his free time with his children and lovely wife.
